LOVE Island fans were left shocked as Emma Milton and Grace Jackson revealed their secret friendship during tonight’s installment.
ITV2 viewers couldn’t believe their ears as Casa Amor girl Emma, 21, and main villa star Grace, 25, let slip that they already know each other during the recoupling.
They even told host Maya Jama, 29, that they’d been together just days before Grace flew out to Majorca for the show.
After Maya spotted them mouthing at each other across the firepit, she asked: “Do you lot know each other?”
Grace replied: “I was literally with her before I just come in here as well,” to which she asked: “And you both didn’t tell each other?”
Emma replied: “It’s just so weird,” inbetween giggles.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one user wrote: “SO EMMA + GRACE KNOW EACH OTHER TOO?! LOOOOOOL OKAY MAN.”
Another added: “Emma & Grace know each other looooooooooool.”
Someone else posted: “So Emma Grace and joey knew each other from outside the villa.. sigh the producers are weird with this one.”
Grace had returned to the villa with Casa boy Blade Siddiqi while Emma coupled up with Konnor Ewudzi.
She had been involved in a love triangle in the sister villa as Blade and personal trainer Moziah Pinder fought for her affection.
In last night’s episode, she enjoyed a very steamy kiss with Moziah in the bedroom which she rated 10 out of 10.
Despite it looking like she was leaning towards him, she ended up going for butler in the buff Blade.
Her ex-boyfriend Joey Essex awkwardly watched on as she returned arm in arm with her new man.
Prior to leaving the villa, Grace had been in a friendship couple with Konnor.
But, tonight, he decided to couple with Emma in a bid to find a romantic connection.

The was a very awkward moment when sweet-toothed Sean Stone stuck with Matilda Draper.
It all seemed perfect until Maya decided to get messy and asked Sean to divulge his Casa Amor antics.
He downplayed his flings with Diamanté and Ruby, but the girls didn’t take it lying down and delivered some home truths, much to Matilda’s surprised.
She hit back by telling them that neither was in her position, prompting Diamante to brutally respond that Sean would stray again.
The other Islanders could only blush around them.
